Would you like to see a mainline Pokemon game created in the old style? (lemmings.world)

I'm talking about a new game but made with old graphics and mechanics similar to Megaman 9 & 10.

I personally think such a thing could sell gangbusters and honestly go on record as one of the greatest Pokemon games ever made, especially in recent years.

Nope, but fans would like one. If you don't want one I don't see what the problem is if you just disengage from the series.

So I cannot critique the idea because some fan would like this? I don't see your point here, I'm interested in videogame as art, not to commercial success.

We also already know what fans bring to creator, look at Netflix series...people don't really know what they want.
